sure

Only metaphorically when I read Dylan Thomas' poem.

What a fabulous poem by Dylan Thomas Bill - that's one of my favourite poems ever, so to answer your question - I certainly do! :o) xxxx

No, I crave the darkness.

I would rage if I assumed that the light really dies.

i do not go gentle int the long goodnight.

Just read the poem to see what everyone was tlking about.

...

... wow.

It's not very sensible to rage, rage against something we can't alter. Only two things are sure in life: death and taxes - and you might even swindle the tax man, but......

You're going to die. Get used to the idea. With or without religious consolation, prepare yourself. The idea of going, kicking and screaming, like a toddler being carried off to bed appals me.

It won't be any pleasanter if you rage, that's certain.

Yes i do and what a great idea for a sad poem.

NO. I don't like the poem and I rage against the act-OR Richard Burton for reading it.
